Broadcom VMware has terminated the VMware IT Academy and Academic Software License programs. In accordance with our Broadcom agreements, NDG will support VMware ICM and OSS labs until the required termination. All VMware IT Academy labs will be completely removed from NDG services August 2025.

In our continued commitment to supporting learners and academic institutions, NDG is providing alternative virtualization learning options.
